VS-15AWL06FNTR-M3

Single Diodes Overview

The VS-15AWL06FNTR-M3 is an ultralow forward voltage (VF) ultrafast rectifier manufactured by Vishay Semiconductors. It features a 600 V peak repetitive reverse voltage and a 15 A average rectified forward current rating. The device utilizes FRED Pt® technology to achieve an ultrafast recovery time with extremely low VF and soft recovery characteristics. Packaged in a DPAK (TO-252AA) surface-mount housing, it supports a maximum operating junction temperature of 175 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Optimized for Discontinuous Mode (DCM) Power Factor Correction applications
• Minimizes conduction loss through ultralow forward voltage drop
• Soft-switching hyperfast rectifier design reduces switching losses
• Halogen-free, RoHS compliant, and lead-free terminations

Single Diodes Applications

• Discontinuous Mode (DCM) Power Factor Correction (PFC)
• Freewheeling diode in power supplies
• General power switching applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's documentation to confirm packaging orientation and quantity. The 'TR' suffix indicates tape and reel packaging, while 'TRL' denotes left-oriented reels and 'TRR' denotes right-oriented reels. Confirm that the component meets the required environmental standards, such as RoHS compliance and MSL level 1 classification, prior to integration into the production line.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when minimizing conduction loss and stored charge are critical for efficiency. The device is specifically engineered to reduce over-dissipation in switching elements and snubbers during high-frequency operation. Ensure the application requires a single diode configuration within a DPAK package and can accommodate the specified thermal resistance values for optimal performance.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to Vishay's family of state-of-the-art, ultralow VF, soft-switching hyperfast rectifiers. It shares core electrical characteristics with the VS-15EWL06FN-M3 variant, differing primarily in pinout configuration and internal connection topology. Both variants utilize FRED Pt® technology to deliver optimized performance for modern power conversion systems requiring high reliability and low thermal stress.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

The VS-15EWL06FN-M3 is a documented alternative within the same product series. Verify pin compatibility and thermal requirements before substitution.
